My most memorable Brandeis experience?

Was attending the Relay for Life event. It was a powerful and moving evening that brought the whole community together to support cancer research and honor those affected by the disease.

My favorite activity outside of class is...

Guiding prospective students on campus tours. I enjoy showcasing our institution's vibrant community and answering their questions about campus life. It's rewarding to witness their excitement and help them envision themselves as part of our academic community.

My favorite place on campus, in Waltham or in Boston is...

Waltham skatepark because the vibrant atmosphere and friendly community make it a great place for riders to showcase their skills.

My favorite Brandeis class/professor is...

My favorite Brandeis class/professor is BIOL15B with Dr. Maira Miara, for whom I now proudly serve as a teacher assistant (TA). Each lecture was a showcase of her unwavering enthusiasm and ability to engage with students. This course both inspired and pushed me to work diligently, fostering a deep commitment to academic excellence.
